Never
put water down the drain when there maybe another
use for it such as watering a plant or garden, or cleaning.
Verify
that your home is leak-free, because many homes have hidden
water leaks. Read your water meter before and after a two-hour
period when no water is being used. If the meter does not read
exactly the same, there is a leak.
Repair
dripping faucets by replacing washers. If your faucet is
dripping at the rate of one drop per second, you can expect to
waste 2,700 gallons per year which will add to the cost of water
and sewer utilities.
Check
for toilet tank leaks
